How they died
Deadly force
Police said they believe a boy called to report himself to officers in the third-person for a "welfare check." Police arrived to find the teenager standing in the parking lot of the high school. Police said he pulled out a handgun from his waistband and pointed it at the two officers. Fearing for their safety, Officer Gilbert Flores and Officer Kai Johnson shot and killed the boy who had a BB gun.
